Smith & Nephew PLC announced the voluntary
recall of the cementless versions of its Oxinium Genesis II and
Profix II knee systems.

The Smith & Nephew knee replacements
failed to properly bond. Due to a lack of bone adhesion to the
implant, there have been many cases of implants loosening and
cases of implants never bonding to the underlying bone. As a
result, some patients require painful and expensive revision
surgery, which increases the risk of infection and further joint
and muscular damage that could cause a more painful rehab.

If you or a loved one has suffered damaging
complications as a result of knee replacement surgery contact
us to discuss your legal rights.
